The war will be won by men and ships, by guns and airplanes. To raise armies and supply them, to build the navy and support it, and to furnish ships and transport, we must have money in large amounts. The expenditures of the Government for the ensuing year are estimated at $24,000,000,000, a sum which baffles the imagination to conceive. That vast amount We are fighting to secure a just, righteous and lasting peace. For a complete peace we must have a complete victory. It must not be a peace of bargain or negotiation. No peace which satisfies Germany can ever satisfy us. No peace that leaves Germany in a position to renew the war against us will be worth having. It will be far from sufficient to gain all our objects on the Western front—Belgium, Alsace-Lorraine, Italia Irredenta.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1918. OUR WAR INTENTIONS. "We intend what our forefathers, the founders of this Republic, intended. We in America believe our participation in this war to be the fruitage of what they planted. Our case differs from theirs only in this, that it is our inestimable privilege to concert with men out of every nation what shall make not only the liberties of America secure, but the liberties of every other people as well. . . . "There can be but one issue. The settlement must be final. There can be no compromise. No halfway decision would be tolerable. No halfway decision is conceivable. . . . "The blinded rulers of Prussia have roused forces they know little of—forces which can never be crushed to earth again; for they have in their heart an inspiration and a purpose which are deathless and of the very stuff of triumph."—From the President's Mount Vernon Address. Don't let your Liberty Bonds get away from you. Hold onto them, even if you may be tempted to dispose of them. In the first place, the government intended them for YOU. The Liberty loans were designed as people's loans. In order to finance the war the government must have the support of ALL the people. It was intended that you keep the bonds and not trade them or sell them. Promiscuous selling tends to depreciate their value, and that is what the German agents here would like to do. Not only is it your patriotic duty to retain these bonds, but in doing so you are laying up something for a rainy day. The Liberty loans and the Was Savings Stamp issues have done more to encourage thrift in America than anything ever before attempted. They have made bondholders out of thousands of people who never in their lives until now had made an investment. Crafty and unscrupulous individuals are using every means to entice these bonds out of the hands of their owners. One method is to offer in ex- THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the we intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the countens the hearts of friends I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. change for Liberty bonds stock certificates in fly-by-night companies, worth only the gold paper they are printed on, and represented as returning a much higher rate of interest than the government securities. Those who are not familiar with stock values should beware of such offers. There are other methods, some savoring of the gold-brick variety; others just within the limits of the law. Liberty bonds are the safest investment in the world. If you MUST dispose of them, you would do well to consult your banker. BY THE MIDNIGHT OIL Have you read the speech of Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman, of Illinois, entitled "Unofficial and Personal Government," delivered in the United States Senate recently? If not, write for it without delay, be you man or woman. In it you will find mordant comment on our Government as at present conducted, and what lead up to it, which will put you on your toes ready for a sprint to the ballot box to vote for a termination of such a condition of affairs. The language of the speech is forceful and inimitable; fearless and illuminating. It deals chiefly with one Col. E. M. House, erstwhile a popgun colonel and politician in the State of Texas, now the ringmaster of the political circus in Washington, to whom the Democrats bow low, and lower still, when he cracks the whip. Quotations from a book ascribed to this man, given by Sherman, will indicate the program he has in mind to overthrow American institutions and make of United States industrialism a politically-owned monstrosity. The speech may be secured by writing Senator Sherman at Washington, D.C., for a copy. It will make you sit up in bed o'nights. WAR WELFARE WORK The decision of the President of the United States that there shall be one giant campaign for the support of the various American Army Welfare organizations has joined the Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., American Library Association, Salvation Army. War Camp Community Service, Jewish Relief Board and the National Catholic War Council in a drive for $170,500,000 with which to support war welfare work both at home and abroad. This is not a philanthropic campaign; it is a war campaign. Just as the Liberty Loan campaign will furnish uniforms and ammunition and guns, so this will furnish that other essential for winning the war—morale. Minnesota will be asked to raise $3,900,000. Of this $100,000 will go to the Y. M. C. A., $30,000 to the National War Council, $15,000 to the Y. W. C. A., $15,000 to the War Camp Community Service, $3,500 to the American Library Association, $3,500 to the Jewish Welfare Board and $3,500 to the Salvation Army. $200 FOR EACH DEPENDENT It is gratifying to note that in framing the new income tax provision the authors of the revenue bill have retained the exemption in the present law of $200 for each minor child. That idea is of purely Republican origin. When the bill of 1917 was being debated in the House the proposition was advanced by one of the Republicans of that body, but failed of adoption. In the Senate it was taken up again by the late Senator Gallinger, and included in the bill as reported to the Senate by the Finance Committee. It passed the Senate and GOD GIVE US MEM.

In the present bill the Democrats have extended the Republican theory of exemption to dependents so as to include not only minors but also adults who may be incapable of self-support. ONLY HALE ADJOURNED The Lewisburg (Pa.) Saturday News very pertinently remarks that the announcement that "politics is adjourned" has not been accompanied by the appointment of a Republican to a place in the cabinet, nor the appointment of Republicans to fill any of the offices of customs collector, etc. No, and the administration has not made full use of the abilities of such men as Roosevelt and Wood. Nor has it acknowledged its obligations to the late Augustus P. Gardner, one of the pioneers of preparedness. Perhaps politics is only half adjourned. FRANKLIN AN OLD FOGEY Postmaster General Burleson is quoted as saying that it would be a good thing for the country if half of the newspapers went out of business. The views of the P. M. G. in 1918 are somewhat different from those entertained by the first head of the Postal Service, one Benjamin Franklin. "Lemon pie officers" is the latest nickname for the "swivel-chair corps." "Yellow all the way through and not enough crust to go 'over the top.'" CAN'T BE TRUSTED. "American wearing apparel is gaining steadily in Argentina as the result of the falling European supplies," declares the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce. "This is especially true of hosiery, which before the war came almost entirely from Germany." How freely they now confess the real reason for our great expansion in sales to Latin America, and how utterly they denied it a few weeks before the 1916 election. Those were the days when the Democratic National Committee said our war export trade was due to Democratic policies, and that the sale of war goods accounted for but 5 per cent of the total. A party that lied like that in 1916 is pretty apt to lie again in the Congressional campaign of 1918. ALABAMA STANDS PAT. The renomination of Congressman Huddleston, of Alabama, after the President had asked for his defeat need not be taken as an endorsement of what Huddleston stands for. It it more likely a rebuke to the President for trying to control an election. This is still a republican form of government, with three separate and distinct branches, the most important of which is the legislative. The people recognize this, and they will tolerate no executive dictation in election of Senators and Representatives. To establish the precedent of defeating a man because he meets the displeasure of the President would be to make subservient tools of a considerable number of members of Congress. This, of course, the people of the country do not want done. They want men, not rubber stamps, in Congress. Huddleston voted wrong a good many times, but it is no worse to be wrong than to be a mere non-entity, a puppet, an echo, a rubber stamp, a messenger, or any other kind of a lackey for somebody else. THE CENSUS GRAB While the Census bill was under discussion in the House, Representa- to this demands true faith and ready hands; does not kill; cannot buy; d a will; who will not lie; demagugue batteries without winking! live above the fog thinking. —J. G. Holland. tire John G. Cooper of Ohio, sought the adoption of an amendment that would have taken from the Democrats some, at least, of the enormous amount of patronage they will exercise when that measures is put into effect. As it now reads all census supervisors are to be appointed by the Secretary of Commerce upon recommendation of the Director of the Census. Of course that means that practically all will be Democrats. Mr. Cooper would have given the Congressmen a voice in making recommendations for appointments in their own districts. Had his views prevailed Republican districts would have stood a chance of having their inhabitants recorded by Republican supervisors. But Mr. Cooper's amendment met with disfavor from the party in control and was defeated. A KENTUCKY GUNMAN. The Kentucky Democrat who is Chairman of the District of Columbia Committee in the House holds the record for bringing into the House freak legislation that he has prepared on the spur of the moment to meet some fancied need. Just now he is advocating the passage of a bill making imprisonment for one year the penalty for carrying a concealed weapon in the city of Washington, five years for a second offense, and life imprisonment for a third offense. Representative Edward H. Wason of New Hampshire took issue with the Kentuckian that his penalties were entirely out of proportion to the gravity of the offense, and contended that the present statute coupled with the proper granting of licenses by the chief of police, was sufficient to control the evil. It is openly hinted that the gentleman from the Blue Grass State has been guilty more than once of the offense against which he now wants to legislate, and if his bill should become a law he would be one of the first to suffer from its proper enforcement. SOME OF THE BITS YOUR LIBERTY BOND WILL DO. If you buy a $100 bond of the Fourth Liberty Loan you are lending the United States Government enough money to feed a soldier in France a little more than seven months. Or you have furnished enough money to give him a complete outfit of winter and summer clothing, including shoes and stockings, and slicker and overcoat and blankets, with enough left over to arm him with a good revolver. You have done that much to beat back the Hun. It takes $35 more to arm him with a rifle with a bayonet on it, and if you buy a second $100 bond you furnish him this rifle and 1,000 cartridges for it; and there will still be enough of your money left to purchase a good-sized bomb to throw in a dugout, or demolish a machine gun together with the Huns operating it. BONDS OF THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN. Bonds of the Fourth Liberty Loan are now being turned out by the thousands daily by the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing. The bonds are similar in form and design to those of the third loan, and space has been left on each bond for insertion of the exact terms of the bonds. It is believed that a sufficient number of the bonds will be ready to make possible immediate delivery of all bonds of the fourth loan as they are purchased. OBJECTS TO "DARKY." The Editor of THE APPEAL Writes a Letter to the Chicago Tribune, Which is Self Explanatory. Managing Editor, The Chicago Tribune, Chicago, Illinois. Dear Sir: The enclosed was probably printed without your knowledge or consent. Is it, for instance, an insult to more than 200,000, an abolition of now in the United States Army, of whom 100,000 are already in France fighting for freedom and democracy. It is also an insult to the 12,000-000 Americans in the United States who are clashed as "colored" who are 100 per cent loyal. a fact the Tribune admitted in an editorial some time since. While the "colored troops are fighting nobly" at the front—many have died in the have won the "Civilian land—some do not permit the use of troops that are offensive to those they have left behind, who are buying Liberty Bonds, War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps; contributing to the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A. Knights of Columbus, Salvation Army and other war funds, in spite of the fact that some of these organizations either segregate them or refuse admission. They are also conserving food and fuel and willingly making as many sacrifices as any other group of Americans who genuinely Americans without the hyphen the Census of 1910 showing that ONLY 496 COLORED AMERICANS WERE BORN IN AFRICA! To be consistent the Tribune should use "Sheeny" for Jewish soldiers, "Dago" for Italian soldiers, "Mick" for Irish soldiers, "Frogater" for French soldiers and "Chink" for Chinese soldiers, and other nomenames for the various military units such man the United States Army. Even German Americans, many of whom are in the army, do not have such offensive epithets applied to them unless they are discharged for disloyalty.

Adams, Editor THE APPEAL. To the above letter the following reply has been received: THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE The World's Greatest Newspaper Chicago, Sept. 1st, 1918. "Mr. J. Q. Adams, I have your letter of Aug. 29th calling attention to the use of the word "Darky" in a head over an item from Camp Grant. I wish to assure you that there was not the slightest intention on the part of anyone who had to do with this item, of reflecting on the colored people in identifying the soldier as a colored man. Everyone, I think, appreciates the loyal spirit and heroic work of the soldiers of the colored race in this war and no one could wish to detract from the just recognition that is theirs. Yours very truly, E. S. BEW, Managing Editor." Eleventh Annual Convention of National in Session in Chicago. Chicago, September 20.—Delegates from twenty states are in Chicago attending the eleventh annual convention of the National Equal Rights League, which opened at Olivet Baptist Church, Chicago Tuesday. Mass meetings at various churches were held every night during the sessions and were attended by enthusiastic audiences. The principal speakers included William Monroe Trotter of Boston, the greatest agitator for justice to the colored people, Rev. A Powell Clayton of New York, Thomas Walker of Washington, Ida B. Wells Barnett of Chicago and other prominent people. The dominant note was, while the colored soldiers are fighting for democracy "over there," give the colored race justice "over here." The final meeting was held Thursday night at Provident Baptist church, North Leavitt and West Walnut streets. Speakers from New York, Boston and cities of the south were on the program for discussion of the general theme "Race Discrimination in Peace and War." Strong resolutions were unanimously adopted demanding the abolition of discriminations of every kind based on race or color. The officers of the League are: Rev. Byron Gunther, President; Rev. Thomas Treas, Washington, D. C., William Monroe Trotter, Secretary, Boston Mass. PRESIDENT WILSON Commutes Sentences of Ten Colored Soldiers Sentenced to be Hung. Thirteen colored soldiers accused of participation in the riot at Houston, Tex., Aug. 23, 1917, were hung. Sixteen more were sentenced to be hung. President Wilson reviewed the finding and confirmed the sentences of six but commuted to life imprisonment ten. In a statement attached to the record, he said: "I commute the remaining sentences, because I believe the lesson of this lawless riot will have been adequately pointed out by the action at Yours for industrial freedom. mile of one of the Government's Exhibits Introduced In evide- t I.

NO COMMISSIONS FOR COLORED PHYSICIANS. (From the Journal of the American Medical Association, Chicago, September 7.) The new draft regulations seriously effect the Washington, (D. C.) colored doctors, of whom there is relatively a large number. For a number of months past no commissions as medical officers have been granted to physicians of that race on the ground that the proportion of medical officers for colored troops has already been enrolled. A committee recently sought relief from the Secretary of War for this situation, but was informed that there are at present no prospects for more medical officers. This leaves many colored physicians who have vainly volunteered to serve as medical officers face to face with the prospect of being inducted into the service as privates under the new law. McADOO WARNS RAIL EMPLOYES TO BE COURTEOUS. Railroad employees have been specially ordered by Director General McAdoo to show courtesy in dealing with the public and to cease excusing train delays and other errors with the plea that "Uncle Sam is running the railroads now." "The public be damned' policy will 'no case be tolerated on the railroad and government control,' said the director general's order, addressed to 'all employees in the railroad service of the United States." Hurrah for Mr. McAdoo! Colored Men Nominated. At the recent primaries in Chicago James H. Johnson, former Lieuten- ant-Colonel of the former Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard, was nominated for County Commis- sioner on the Republican ticket. He stood fourth on a list of ten nomi- nated, receiving 47,175 votes. S. B. Turner and A. H. Roberts were nomi- nated for the legislature.

New York—After asserting that he was 147 years old, William Masces, a colored preacher, died soon after being admitted to Bellevue hospital suffering from pneumonia, arteriosclerosis, and heart disease. He answered all questions about revolutionary times so intelligently that the hospital authorities put him on record as being of that age, the oldest patient ever admitted to the hospital. WALLER AGAINST "NEGRO." Noted Brooklyn Doctor Says It Causes Mental and Physical Segregation. (From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discounting the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present time to bring about both a physical and moral segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bois and Washington feel that its repetition, and ausem, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly inaccurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or upifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to Guinea, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negroy," and its compounds, Negrohead, Negrofly, Negro-monkey, are also nearly in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. e. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is most differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Negro" and "Nigger." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world.

HALL. Having Been Called to Colors is Tendered a Public Testimonial. Some several weeks ago, Capt. O. C. Hall, of the M. H. G. have, an appointment as oversees secretary for the Y. M. C. A. As he is one of the most popular men in the city a movement was started to give him a rousing testimonial and some sixty dollars was subscribed for that purpose. About this time the draftees were about to leave and the Hall demonstration was side-tracked that they might get a big send-off, which was given. Mr. Hall has been waiting for orders from the East and they came this week and a hurry up testimonial was tendered to him at St. James A. M. E. Church Thursday evening. Owing to lack of publicity and other causes the audience was so large as it should have been and so deep as they were under different circumstances. But, there was no doubting that each and every one present was a friend of the "Big Brother." During the evening Mrs. Mattle Blair and Mrs. S. E. Hall sang solos and a splendid letter from M. L. Barksdale was read. It was a very, very enjoyable affair marred only by the fact that it accentuated the loss of our highly esteemed townman and Booster from our mldst. He leaves tonight for the East carrying with him the best wishes of all who know him. Mr. Ira S. Ashe, chairman of the original testimonial committee, called the meeting to order and after invocation by Rev. A. H. Lealtad the Star Spangled Banner was sung. Mr. Ashe then announced that each subscriber for the original testimonial ORRINGTON C. HALL. would have his money returned upon application to him. He then introduced Maj. Jose H. Sherwood as Master of Ceremonies, who made a splendid speech as all the others did who spoke. And if anyone present doubted about the place, Orri C. Hall fills in the hearts of the people of St. Paul, they were certainly removed by the splendid words of commendation that each one expressed. The speakers were: Walker Williams, Geo. J. Rles, County Auditor where Mr. Hall is employed; Mrs. J. E. Johnson; Martin J. O'Malley, County Treasurer; J. Q. Adams, B. R. Durant, Dr. Val Do Turner, T. R. Morgan, Henry Gallick, Court Commissioner; B. C. Archer, C. H. Miller, Lieut. Lee, M. H. G.; S. E. Hall, R. M. Johnson, I. S. Ashe, F. D. McCracken, The Sterling Club, of which Capt O. C. Hall is a member, on last Wednesday evening gave him a farewell luncheon at the club's rooms, corner of Rondo and Arundel streets. A very delicious lunch was served and a very delightful time was enjoyed by all present, including Messrs. S. E. and A. V. Hall, brothers of the guest of honor. Besides the spread, music, cards, etc., felicitous speeches were made by each one present. Miss Cornella Gordon entertained the D. Y. W. Y. K. club at her home on Monday evening and at that time announced her engagement to Mr. Walter Smith of Cleveland, Ohio. TEL. DALE 4046 PRYOR'S CAFE HENRY PRYOR, PROPRIETOR LADIES!

On Friday morning in the "Mail to the Pioneer Press" column the following letter was published. As the white reading public comprises the people who need to have such facts brought to their notice we republish the letter as encouragement to those who can state the case as Mr. Moker has done, to go and do likewise. Publicity pays: To the Editor of the Pioneer Press: May we, as a people in one accord, answer as did the people of old when Nehemiah, patriotic cup bearer, replied to the king, "Why should our hearts not be sad" when our boys are fighting for democracy are Jim Crowed in the Y. M. C. A.? We are segregated and oppressed and the bodies of our sisters and brothers are burned at the stake in the land of the free and the home of the brave. We read in one column of the loyalty of our people and the bravery of our boys at the front and in another column of a horrible lynching without trial or jury. Still in the face of it all, we instruct our brave boys in the trenches and our people at home to leave nothing undone that will help our government in buying Liberty bonds and in every way we should help to help the men and go forward in the strength of our manhood and womanhood with renewed courage and hopes that we may realize to some degree the democracy that the nations of the world are fighting for. We are not asking for favors. We are only asking for rights that belong to every American citizen, which is denied us in many public places, and the same opportunities to earn a living that is accorded to foreigners who come to this country. We admit that conditions are better than they have been and let us be optimistic and look forward to the time when the fellowship of God and the brotherhood of man will prevail the world over. —George W. Moker. MEMORIAL MENTIONINGS The pastor has returned from St. Louis, where he went to attend the meeting of the National Baptist Convention. He also visited Indianapolis and Chicago.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY LOAN. The campaign for the Fourth Liberty Loan will begin September 28 and close October 19. The result of the loan will be watched with keen interest in Europe, not only by our associates in the war against the Teutonic powers but by our enemies. It will be regarded by them as a measure of the American people's support of the war. The Germans know full well the tremendous weight and significance of popular support of the war, of the enemy at home backup up the Army in the field. As the loan succeeds our enemies will sorrow, as it falls short they will rejoice. Every dollar subscribed will help and encourage the American soldiers and hurt and depress the enemies of America. The loan will be, a test of the loyalty and willingness of the people of the United States to make sacrifices compared with the willingness of our soldiers to do their part. There must be and will be no failure by the people to measure up to the courage and devotion of our men in Europe. Many of them have given up their lives; shall we at home withhold our money Shall we spare our dollars while they spare not their very lives?

DEFECTS SPELL DEATH IN FLYING Psychological as Well as Physiological Factors Responsible for Accidents. SCIENTISTS EXPLAIN THEM Some of the Qualities That Give Americans Superiority in Air Over Their Hun Opponents—Temperament In New York.—Considerable concern has been expressed at the large number of fatal accidents reported from our American military and naval aviation training camps. Considering the risks the novice necessarily takes and the very special physiological and psychological factors that enter into the science of flying, these fatal accidents are few in proportion to the number of men undergoing training, and they are not more numerous than those on the training fields of Great Britain, France and Italy. A perfect knowledge of all the rules of the game of flying will not save a man who lacks confidence in himself and is inclined to hesitate. A half-second of indecision may be fatal. Initiative, the sporting instinct and a certain irresponsibility, qualities inherent in American youth, have been found of far greater value in the air than the logical, scientific, severely disciplined character of the Germans, and account for the superiority of the allied aviators in general. The most eminent of British scientists have devoted special study to the psychological and physiological aspects of flying. One authority says that good eyesight, normal hearing, good "muscle sense" and equilibration are indispensable qualifications. But most important of all is the right temperament—not an easy thing for a medical board to examine. Of the types—the imaginative and the unimaginative—the imaginative youth is said to make the better pilot if he can keep his imagination under control. Surgical Operations No Bar. In the British air service previous history of wounds and disease is thoroughly investigated. Persistent headaches, vertigo and easily induced fatigue are serious defects. But sometimes even a serious surgical operation is not regarded as important. Thus a doctor recently passed as for flying a man who had quite a large piece missing from the frontal region of the skull. It is much more important that a man should have both arms intact than both legs. A clever pilot who was killed on the western front was Lord Lucas, who had an artificial leg. Considerable importance is attached to the respiratory system. In addition to good, healthy lungs and vital capacity, the would-be pilot must pass a breath-holding test. This gives an indication of his capacity to stand the strain of flying at high altitudes, where the air is rarefied and breathing is difficult. No man with a weak heart can hope to pass the tests. Self-balancing is another test. The candidate has to stand on one leg with his eyes shut and his hands on his hips. There is also the old test for sobriety—walking a straight line heel to toe with eyes open and then turning round and walking back without losing balance. The importance of this test can be understood, seeing that an aviator flying in a dark cloud or in a fog becomes unconscious of his position and sometimes the machine is actually upside down. It is essential that he should not lose a second in recovering his balance. The throat, nose and ear are carefully examined, for any defects might seriously handicap a man during the great strain that all flying imposes. With regard to the eyes, it is considered that pilots should have perfect color vision, in order to pick out the color or marking of hostile machines, and in recognizing signal lights and in judging the nature of landing grounds. Air Sickness Rare. A candidate who suffers from seasickness or train sickness-would not be rejected on those grounds alone. Air sickness, caused by the rolling and pitching of the airplane, is a very rare complaint, and sickness usually occurs immediately after landing. An unstable nervous system suggested by fidgety movements of the hands, feet or face, or biting the nails is a poor recommendation. Aero-neurosis is the name which is sometimes given to nervous troubles brought about by the strain of flying. It has been said that an airman's life consists of "long spells of idleness punctuated by moments of intense fear." He has to endure intense cold, rain, wind and fog, the nerve-racking noise of the engine, the antialcraft fire, and to loop, spin, dive or side-slap, apparently out of control, in order to deceive an opponent. An interesting nerve test has been devised in France for selecting the best types of airmen for fighting. Around his chest is a pneumograph, in his left hand a trembler, and around two fingers of his right hand a pneumatic "dolgiac." Behind the candidate a revolver shot is fired or a magnesium flare is set off, and a record of the effect on his nerves is obtained by means of stylets writing on a blackened revolving cylinder. 246-50 Fourth Av.
